+LionsLair Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 great looking coin! I love it! I just hope the mystery coiner doesn't get discouraged from all the buzz kill in the room. I don't know the legal aspects, but I agree... if it isn't being produced or sold for profit and nothing links it to Disney... it is nothing more than fan art. ....pretty impressive fan art!

I agree-Mysterycoiners are the best! Thanks to whoever you are that shelled out your hard earned money to make other people happy. I don't know the legal aspects either, but I think Disney has more things to be worried about than a few geocoins being sent out for free. This has been done and done so I'm not sure why the issue over this particular coin? Quote Link to comment

+keewee Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Cool coin! i thought it was an April Fool's joke! Maybe it still is!? I am wondering too... could be a very elaborate April Fool's joke with a number of people in on it. Either way, I'm watching my mailbox - even though today is Sunday! Quote Link to comment
Theotokos Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Who are they going to sue? This came in the mail addressed to me, from me. I have no idea who really sent it. Congrats Joni!! Nice coin and I sure hope the killjoys don't take anything away from the wonderful gesture of the mystery giver. There are a lot bigger fish to fry out there that people could spend their efforts on I'm sure. Quote Link to comment

Nice coin and I sure hope the killjoys don't take anything away from the wonderful gesture of the mystery giver. There are a lot bigger fish to fry out there that people could spend their efforts on I'm sure. I don't want to sound like a killjoy. I also am amazed by the generosity of mystery coin givers. All the more reason why I don't want to see them get in trouble over this. Disney does have bigger fish to fry, but that doesn't mean they leave the little fish alone. They once sued a daycare because they had painted a picture of Mickey on an inside wall. Quote Link to comment

+ECplus3 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Nice coin. The question is which side of the force will Mickey be drawn to???? Disney is apparently trying to steer Mickey towards his mischievous roots, so I'm guessing the dark side. Quote Link to comment

+GeoCharmer81 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 (edited) I think all the Mystery Coiners are just amazing--spending their money and time to make others happy!!! Yes,big companies do pick on the little guy, but they do "pick their Battles"!!! Especially, if it's a not-for-profit venture. And, if we're going to worry about Disney, what about the Star Wars aspect??? Don't those companies frown on copyright/trademark violations??? PLEASE, no need to pick up on this comment--just my opinion!!! Just let the Mystery Coiners and all the lucky recipients ENJOY the coins--the making,giving and receiving!!! PS: congrats to above mentioned recipients!!! Edited April 3, 2011 by GeoCharmer81 Quote Link to comment
